Chapter 685: Finally Open (2/2)

'That's not it. I can't tell why exactly. Still, there is something strange about this body. I need to check it once more.

'Are you talking about those things you felt during the last time we were here?'

Zule nodded.

'Yes. That familiar sensation has been increasing recently. However, that isn't all.'

Krune and Iem had heard about it the first time they entered the Demon Beast's Corpse. However, nothing happened in the end. They left the corpse, and Zule didn't comment on it anymore.

'Did something different happen this time?'

Zule nodded.

'Yes. It is very faint, but I can feel a presence that is quite familiar to my own. It's just that I can't tell where it is coming from or what relation it has with me.'

This time, Iem and Krune were finally surprised.

'Are you talking about another Heavenly Fragment?'

Zule shook his head, though.

'No. I can't explain it very well. But I can tell that it is definitely something related to the Demon Beast's Corpse. I feel like I will lose something extremely important if I don't go in this time.'

Krune and Iem then began to ponder about it. Finally, Krune looked at Iem and said.

'Well, I'll go in to take a look. After all, I need Zule's help to open a passage to the Mortal Realm for me later. You can go back since there isn't really a reason for you to risk yourself with me in there.'

Iem narrowed his eyes.

'And lose all the fun? At first, I thought it would be a simple struggle for the Foundation Space resources between the Sect Masters. To be honest, I don't have much interest in it since I can't participate in a battle of their level. However, it seems like something even more impressive is about to happen now. How can I stay behind? Hahaha!'

Krune sighed but didn't try to stop him.

'So be it. Even if I tell you to give up, I know you won't. Don't come at me later saying that I didn't warn you.'

Iem smiled and nodded.

The duo then turned to Franlia.

”We wish to go in as well, Sect Master. Also, we would like to move inside independently.”

Franlia was taken aback by such a request.

”Why?”

Krune and Iem simply replied.

”That's because we wish to check a few other places while there—for example, the Demon Beast's Head. We didn't have this time before because of the time limit in the Sealed Space. As for why we will move independently, that's because we are too weak. We would be of no help to you and the others with our cultivation level. It is better if we stay away while the negotiations with the Foundation Space Powers are ongoing.”

Franlia didn't like the idea. However, it was true that they couldn't change much when it came to the Foundation Space situation.

”Alright. However, the insides are still too dangerous for you two.”

Franlia then sent a Divine Sense Message to two elders close to her.

”Dudo, Mala, you two will follow Krune and Iem into the Demon Beast's Corpse. Make sure you protect their lives as if they were yours.”

Dudo and Mala were two of Franlia's most trusted elders in the Sect. Not only that, but they also had cultivations at the Peak of the God Foundation Realm. Unless Krune and Iem get targeted by God Core Realm enemies, Dudo and Mala should be able to keep them safe.

”Yes, Sect Master.”

Neither Krune nor Iem had really a reason to deny that help. After all, they were only going in to help Zule check what was happening. Any extra help would be welcome.

”Thank you, Sect Master.”

After that, Krune and Iem continued to use their Purple Lightning and Black Flames to open the passage.

Still, Zule was not the only one to feel that similar presence.

Meanwhile, there was a kid who didn't leave Binmia's side. Obviously, that was the second 'Zule.' Franlia and Aragan had noticed his presence and felt quite puzzled. They weren't idiots and could tell that Binmia must have a reason to bring that kid inside. Still, they also had some low-level cultivators and demon beasts in their groups, so they didn't bother too much.

'Zule' then looked around and smiled.

'It seems like I'm not the only one around. Still, that's good. I need as many as possible so that I can recover my Soul Power. Perhaps, I can get some of my memories back as well.'

Since there was no hurry anymore, Krune and Iem took their time to finish opening the hole safely. Finally, around a day later, the entrance into the Demon Beast's Corpse was open.
